Memory Recall.

[MXman]

Hi All,

Just wondered if this has happened to anyone on the forum here.

I have written a few posts on memory loss and memory problems not that my memory is the best in the world but Iv been having problems with remembering long term stuff that I could remember before Bi but now can't.

Anyway I was watching Back to the Future yesterday afternoon, I caught the end of it as my kids were watching it and I remembered the script as it was happening, (sorry watched the film over and over when it first came out in the 80s, sad I know) I remembered items as they were happening and could remember what happened and was giving a running commentary on the actions and saying what was about to be said. Weird I know but does this mean my long term memory is improving?

In my posts others have kindly replied and said things can happen to trigger members recall and Im sure this was one of those occasions. May more of these happen.

Have a fantastic Sunday all. XX N

Hi MX

Just wondering if you are keeping a diary. It can help a lot especially as the rate of progress begins to slow down.

It can help you to pace your activities and spot when you're doing too much. It is also a great reminder of how far you have progressed.

Hi Random,

Yes I do keep a diary of all sorts of stuff and the Bi progress too. Im really noticing some changes as of late especially in the thinking. Im wondering if its the fact that I got pretty bogged down mentally in one of the projects we were building and its now finished. I had a good 12 weeks where I was working 6 days a week on it and the brain fatigue got worse, feel much better now as its finished though. Could be the reason.

my wife is a good honest woman so provided I don't bore her too much with brain stuff is happy to tell me this has improved this has not etc.

just thinking back those 2 years I have come on leaps and bounds.

[randomphantoms in reply to MXman]

That could be the reason. In fact it is more than likely the whole reason.

All of your energy was put into the project so there was nothing left to retrreive memories.

With that pressure off your brain is just flexing its memory muscles.

I never thought of it like that. Logical though. XX

[randomphantoms in reply to MXman]

Thanks a million for saying its logical.

Pre bi logic puzzles were my favourites but since then I can't do even the easy ones.

Monthly puzzle books and even getting people to buy me puzzle books for Xmas and birthdays and making time for them every day hasn't helped.

Glad that you are feeling much better wit the pressure off.

Well this weekend has been one of the best for a long time, as said not on site this Saturday and with that project out the way and finished the pressure is off. Funny because this was the job we were working on when I had my accident so Im wondering if now iv completed it I have some sort of closure with my mind.

Your so right Roger I try not to bore my wife with the brain stuff but she does find it interesting...I think.

Have a fantastic Monday matey. N
